Is there a good HOWTO on making syslog-ng create files with owner:group

Any good suggestion for an already existing group to use?  I was
thinking of either log or wheel, any thoughts?
syslog-ng uses root:log in its default configuration. If it doesn't
check /etc/syslog-ng.conf.pacnew and see if the log group exists for you.

interesting, it did not work for me. in the /etc/syslog-ng.conf there was:

group("log");

and syslog-ng ignored this setting, I changed it to:

group(19);

as specified in the man page and it works fine now.

Yes, same here. There should be a bug raised I guess. If no one beats me to it I'll raise on tonight.
